Gwen Hoeffgen, Artist

New Age Realism artist Gwen Hoeffgen has been honing her ability to create since her early years in high school. After embracing her affinity for the unusual in reality, she began transcribing her emotion onto canvas. Inspired by basic and brilliant human connection, Gwen hopes to implore others to think outside the norm, and breathe in new personal understanding, in time bringing forth ​their own hidden emotions.

Gwen Hoeff’s preferred medium is acrylic, but works with any/all forms, including pencil sketch, charcoal, and water color.

Along with painting, Gwen also enjoys her guitar as well as traveling to new places/countries to see and experience new things.

With the outbreak of Covid – 19, seniors were requested to stay at home, leaving only if required. What we know at BlueSea Care, is that community is just as important for someone’s health as physical care.

Social Distancing Is Not Social Isolation.

We are committed to connecting seniors together, making sure that they are still a part of the community and are receiving connection and support. Staying together at this time will make us stronger and healthier.
